snowjanus week- day 1: literature

❝ don't you let go! ❞

lotr au, based on rotk. mostly based on the movie since it's been a hot minute since I've read the book in which coriolanus and sejanus finally arrive to mount doom. the journey is finally over.. or is it?

trigger warnings: major charafter death, suicide, heavy trauma

a/n: if you've seen lotr and read the title.. you probably know what this is about fhensn

“How do you pick up the threads of an old life? How do you go on, when in your heart you begin to understand... there is no going back? There are some things that time cannot mend. Some hurts that go too deep, that have taken hold.”

― JRR Tolkein

"We've done it," Coriolanus wants to tell himself. So, so desperately. "The journey is over. We can go home."

No matter how much you say something, though, it doesn't make it true. They're only halfway done, after all. They still have to make it out of this blasted mountain and walk home. Another year or so of walking. No food or water to carry them on. The Ring will have been destroyed, sure, and the army's of Mordor will surely begin to fall, or weaken in the slightest, but that doesn't mean everything will suddenly become easy.

The only reason the Ring was destroyed was because of the horrible creature, Gollum. In a way, Coriolanus owes everything to the Hobbit. Without his guidance and obsession over the One Ring, he wouldn't have made it to Mordor so easily. It wouldn't have been destroyed.

"The Ring is mine, Sejanus." The words fell from his tongue so, so easily. What was the point of resisting anymore? It had stuck with him this long. The Ring was notorious for going from bearer to bearer, but it had yet to leave him. Maybe it was a sign– A sign that he was the next in line for the throne.

"No. No, you can't–" Sejanus sobbed. He took a heavy step forward, and then another, pleading. Coriolanus slipped the Ring onto his finger and vanished from sight. He made a beeline for the exit, only to find himself pulled back by Gollum.

The two would tumble, resulting in Coriolanus getting his index finger bitten off by Gollum in a desperate tussle for the Ring and them both tumbling over the edge of the cliff. Gollum fell into the lava below, taking the Ring with him, while Coriolanus was able to catch the ledge with his mangled hand.

He was able to tell the second the Ring was destroyed. He could feel it in his soul, he dare thought. He would've cried in relief if his life wasn't in danger. Coriolanus tried to haul himself up, reaching up with his uninjured hand. When he caught the ledge and tried to pull himself up, he slipped, only able to catch himself by luck.

I'm trapped. He thought as his hand began to slip. It's a good ending to my story, I suppose.

Coriolanus closed his eyes, bracing for the inevitable.. When a warm, familiar hand fell over his.

"Coryo! Open your eyes!"

Sejanus. Dear Sejanus. His eyes were wide with terror, blood dripping from a giant gash on the side of his head, coating his already muddied face in crimson.

"It's me, your Sejanus. Give me your hand!" Sejanus reached down, yelling over the rumbling of the mountain. It was going to erupt any second now, surely. The Ring was the one thing keeping Mordor together, and with the Ring destroyed, Mordor would follow blindly, like a soldier into battle. "Give me your hand!"

Coriolanus swallowed heavily, swinging his hand upward in a half-hearted attempt to grab his friends hand. The shaking was getting worse. His mangled hand's grip wasn't enough–

A dark thought crossed his mind.

He could let go now. He'd fulfilled his mission, destroyed the Ring and saved his home. His friends. Everything he ever stood for. The last great evil of Middle Earth had passed.

And a hero deserves to rest.

He glanced up at Sejanus with tired, tortured eyes. A gaze that once held so much life.. So much joy and love. A gaze that told a thousand stories in a second.

But now? It begged to be freed.

Sejanus lowered himself further, blindly pawing at his hand. "Come on!"

Didn't he get it? Didn't he understand? Heroes are lucky if they get to choose the ending to their tale. Coriolanus has that choice.

He was tired. Withered down to the bone. When he looked into his future, all he saw was darkness. Not the comforting darkness you get when you sleep, but the void of life.

"Don't you let go! Don't you let go!"

If only it could be that simple.

There's no other choice.

Coriolanus swung his good hand up again and managed to grasp Sejanus' hand.

Sejanus' face flooded with relief. Coriolanus gave his hand a firm squeeze.

Before letting go.

He could barely make out Sejanus' cry for him over the roar of the mountain.

When he hit the fire below, it hurt.. But only for a moment.

Then, came the darkness he had longed for.

Day 1 Snowjanus Week 2: Literature!

(Note: I decided to do mood boards for the first time, so…)

Based on the poem by William Wordsworth: I wandered lonely as a cloud.

Coriolanus being the cloud and Sejanus being the daffodils in the poem😭
